1) Enigmail is for message encryption and signing, not for managing
email identities.

2) Please don't top-post (see

I installed an add-on named enigmail.  It works very well for me.

Darn it, You're right!  Being on a netbook I'd dragged the window up, but when 
I saw th Cancel/OK I thought that was all that was there - it usually is.  
However, stretching the window does indeed bring up the button.  Thanks for 
that.  It really isn't obvious.  You expect the Cancel/OK only to show when 
everything else has been said.

I have the same build and the button shows up for me. Now, this might seem a bit 
obvious, but i've been bitten by this one before -- make sure the setting's 
window is maximized or at least large enough to allow for the button to show. An 
annoying thing about thunderbird (and i think of firefox too) is that the 
settings forms are not scrollable. Excuse me if i'm not clear, but what I mean 
is this:


Missing button: http://lonetwin.net/missing_button.png
Resized form: http://lonetwin.net/resized.png

hth,

I also have that version.
In Fedora, I just installed Thunderbird using Add/Remove Software, but
installing the thunderbird package using yum should be the same.

Hi, Giuseppe,  Yes, that's where I expected it to be, but it isn't.

No, I'm using 2.0.0.19 (build date 5th Jan, buildhost 
x86-5.fedora.phx.redhat.com).  I don't suppose there's any supporting package 
that I should have, is there?  I don't recall ever seeing such a thing.

Hi Anne,
I use Thunderbird 2 and you should find what Google is saying here:
http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/7752/imagezx3.png

If you don't find that button, probably you are using TB 1.5, but only
you can confirm that.

Manage identities in thunderbird

2009-01-18 Thread Anne Wilson
As I'm having some gpg problems with kmail I decided to set up thunderbird as 
a fall-back.  Now I want to add identities.  Googling tells me that when I get 
up the properties for an account I should click the Manage Identities button, 
but I don't have such a button.  Does any t'bird user know why?  Thanks
